Public Comment
Principal Greg Claussen presented the Levy for Learning. He demonstrated the use of the
referendum for operating funds for learning, for teachers and staff, instructional materials, testing
and utilities. Funds will not be used for construction or renovation of schools or related
structures. There are 28,000 students in School District 196 and 31 schools. Six of the schools
have received National Excellence Awards. I.S.D. 196 is the fourth largest school district in the
state, preceded by Anoka, St. Paul, and Minneapolis. Claussen noted that state funding has not
kept pace with rising expenses. If this levy referendum is successful, class size can be decreased.
For the average home valued at $144,435 a resident will pay $315 more a year, or $26 per
month. If this levy is not approved, likely bus service will be cut to outside a 2 mile radius of the
school and class size would increase.
Margaret Gohman, a resident of I.S.D. 196, urged all residents to vote "yes" for the school
referendum. The kids of the future need opportunities and this levy will help them. Many school
districts in the area are needing additional funds and are doing the same thing.
Response to Public Comment: Karl Hagen, 14012 Belmont Trail
City Planner Pearson reviewed the request by Karl Hagen to retain a cement parking slab which
he had inadvertently placed on a utility easement. City staff caught the mistake when a
Conditional Certificate of Occupancy was issued to Hagen with the condition that the parking
slab be removed over the easement. Mr. Hagen requested that a stipulation be placed on his deed
stating that in the event the utility easement would be required to be dug up he would willingly
remove the slab as with any future owner of the property. City Council reviewed the options at
the Committee of the Whole work session on September 13 and advised staff that the
encroaching slab should be removed as provided in the conditions of the Certificate of
Occupancy.

Contracting on materials ordered and not used. Centex will also provide a replacement Letter of
Credit in the same amount.

Office.

county. Outlot D was regraded making the infrastructure obsolete. There were no comments by

N
Homeowner's Association(s). These three conditions are: 1) An amendment to the PUD
Agreement to reflect recently approved changes to the Planned Unit Development. 2) Recording
of the PUD,Agreement, 3) Execution and recording of neighborhood Homeo'Aner's Association
covenants to assure compliance with the Planned Unit Development. Phase 1 is the classic
homes, Phase 2 is north of Shannon Pond School, and Phase 3 is 30 townhomes or detached
homes.
City Council wished to add a fourth condition; 4) Fit sidewalks in appropriate area that does not
diminish lot size.

lines. DR Horton, purchased Outlot L for development. Council directed staff to adjust where
the trail easements are needed as was done on 160 Street.

R.C.D. Real Estate Partnership Lot Division, 160 Street
City Planner Pearson reviewed the request for a lot split next to Dakota Fence on 160 Street by
property owner David Fischer, R.C.D. Real Estate Partnership. A lot split of fire acres or more
does not need to be platted at the county, so the Park & Recreation Dedication Fee will be
collected with building permit fees when development takes place.

REQUESTED BY RCD REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIP. Second by Caspar. Ayes:
Caspar, Edwards, Klassen, Cisewski, Busho. Nays: None. Motion carried.
Carrousel Plaza Townhomes PUD Final Development Plan and Preliminary Plat —
Heritage Development
City Planner Pearson reviewed the 38 unit townhouse development by Thomas Von Bische of
Heritage Development. The Planning Commission requested revisions for common parking, a
berm with landscaping between the movie theater and homes. The developer does not wish to
provide fencing that is masonry or insert a sidewalk on the private street within the development.
Council discussed these issues and concluded that the fence need not be all masonry, that board
on board with brick or stone pillars would be acceptable, and that the sidewalk requested would
be an additional safety feature for residents, so it should be included. The private street is only 28
feet wide.
MOTION by Cisewski to adopt A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANNED UNIT
DEVELOPMENT, (FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN) AND PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR
CARROUSEL PLAZA TOWNHOMES and revise item 7. to include wood and masonry as
proposed.
